Whatever exists: They are in me, ...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Prabhu Shree Krishna said in Bhagvad Gita:

I am the sapidity in water, O Arjuna.
I am the light in the moon and the sun.
I am the syllable Om / AUM (ॐ) in all the Vedas.
Sound in ether, and Virility in men.
I am the sweet fragrance in earth and the brilliance in fire.
The life in all beings; and I am austerity in ascetics.

Know Me, O Arjuna.
As the eternal seed of all beings.
I am the intelligence of the intelligent.
The splendour of the splendid objects am.

Know Me, O Arjuna.
Of the strong, I am the strength devoid of desire and attachment.
And in all beings.
I am the desire unopposed to Dharma.

Know Me, O Arjuna.
Whatever being [and objects] that are pure, active and inert.
know that they proceed from me.
They are in Me, yet I am not in them.
Source: Bhagavad Gita, Chapter VII, Verses 8-12.

Sthans and presence of Parmeshwar...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Ubhaydarshi avatar having relation with any of the inertness and the place are sacred. These sacred place and objects have the two special forces 1. Maya Samarthya Shakti and 2. Kripa Shakti. In the Sathan the Maya Samarthya (माया सामर्थ्य) is President and the Anushangik (आनुषांगिक) is Subsidiary. But where the blessing of the god is present, where the Parmeshwar avatar (Ubhaydarshi avatar) have taken the stand for the sufficient days are having the Anushangik (आनुषांगिक) as President and Maya Samarthya (माया सामर्थ्य) as Subsidiary.

Classifications of Sthan
Since the Parmeshwara avatar is having the numbers of competency, but the major one is Kripa Shakti and Kripa Shakti develops at own. The places and the Sathans are divided according to the categories of time. The time spent by the Parmeshawar avatar on the places make them the sacred places and the Sathan. In our Mahanubhav Pantha the Sathan is the one of the most sacred thing.

Aasan Sthan – आसनस्थान
The sthan where the Parmeshwar avatar have taken rest for few hours. Hours may vary from 5 to 7 hours. This is the first type of Sthan. Sthan is blessed with the powers of the Parmeshwar Shakti. Making pilgrimage of the Sthan’s is the culture of Mahanubhav Pantha.

Charan Chari – चरणचारि
Places where the Parmeshwar avatar have been standing without the slippers and the wooden Paduka (पादुका). There might be reasons behind this, but the footprints and the places is very sacred for the Mahanubhav Panth.

Vasti Sthan – वसति स्थान
Prameshwar avatar are always on the way to help people to attain Moksha and set them free from their sins and previous Karmas. In between the time, they have taken rest for one night. This makes the Sathan as Vasti Sthan. Our Panch avatar’s are always flowing from one to another place.

Kudi Vasti – कुड़ी वसति
Kudi Vasti is similar to the Vasti Sthan, the difference is that in the Vasti Sthan the time period is only one night, but the Kudi Vasti is having the one day two nights or two day two nights. This is how the Vasti Sthan and Kudi Vasti are different.

Sthan – स्थान
Sthan, now here we come with the same thing but the different time period. Here the Parmeshwar avatar have slept for there to five days. The place is more sacred as compare to the Kudi Vasti. Sthan is the most common word used, but the Sthans are divided too.

Avasthan – अवस्थान
Avasthan, here we have the time period of five to nine days. Here the Parmeshwar avatar blessed the sacred place with more presence.

Mahasthan – महास्थान
Mahasthan, finally this is the last and the most blessed sacred place. The time period is more than the nine days, this might be 1 month, 2 months, 6 months and even in the years. The Mahasthan is where the Parmeshwar avatar have been living and making the people aware about the Bliss (Moksha) and ways to attain Moksha.

॥ जय सर्वज्ञ श्री चक्रधर ॥

बिना भाग्य जो वस्तु ईश्वर अवतार देते है वह लिला ज्ञान कहलाता है।
अवतार के सम्बन्ध से जो फल प्राप्त होता है वह सम्बन्ध दान कहलाता है।
जीवो के कर्मों को ग्रहण कर उन्हे सीघ्रता से भुगवाने को ग्रहणा दान कहते है।
और ईश्वर स्वरूप की प्राप्ती होना यह कैवल्य दान कहते है।
ईस प्रकार ईश्वर की ओर से ये चार प्रकार के दान दिये जाते है।

Why we serve 56 types of cuisines...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Why we serve 56 types of cuisines to Lord Shree Krishna.
Great glory is behind this. For these 56 types of cuisines, the fifty-six is called enjoyment. The enjoyment starts with yoghurt dumplings, rice, whole, papad and this ends with the last element of bhog as cardamom. It is also said that Maiya Yashoda Ji use to serve eight times food in a day to the Bala Krishna. Here is the story of the 56 type of cuisines bhog or 56 bhog.

To protect the Govardhana parvat from the wrath of Indra, Lord Shree Krishna lifted up the Govardhana for the seven consecutive days without the food and water. Shree Krishna just stood beneath the Parvat and all the people of the village are under the parvat. On eight day, when Lord Shree Krishna said, rain is over now you can go outside. All the people of the village are feeling sad for the thing that Bal Krishna survived for the 7 days without any food for the sake of villages. They are speechless and overwhelmed with the feeling towards Bala Krishna. Then the Maiya Yasodha and the villagers just decided to make happy Lord Krishna with the 56 bhogs and show their love to the lord.

The logic behind the 56 bhog is:
7 Days and 8 times food serving in a day (7 day X 8 times bhog = 56 bhog)
According to Shrimad Bhagwat Githa, Gopikaon does not only dawn to bathe in the Yamuna, even they desired to receive the husband like the Nand Kumar Bala Krishna. Lord Krishna consented to the fulfillment of their wishes. To mark the end of fasting and wishes to complete, the served the Lord with 56 bhog.
There are 6 bhog and 56 Sakhian enjoyment… It is also said that Lord Krishna and Radhika are living on a sacred lotus in Gulok. Behind the speciality of rose, there is a fact also. The first layer consists of three layers of lotus “eight”, the second in “sixteen” and third in “thirty-two petals”. On the each petal there is a Sakhi residing and in the middle of these petals lord is residing. Thus the total number of petals is 56. This is the meaning of the number 56.

These 56 types of cuisines to Lord Shree Krishna are as below:

1. भक्त (भात)	2. सूप (दाल)	3. प्रलेह (चटनी)	4. सदिका (कढ़ी)
5. दधिशाकजा (दही शाक की कढ़ी)	6. सिखरिणी (सिखरन)	7. अवलेह (शरबत)	8. बालका (बाटी)

Gyan Shakti Savikar - When Shree ...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

It was the time when Shree Chakarapani Maharaj Ji left to Mahur, it was the Saka 1080 era. At the age of 30; Shree Chakarapani Ji made the pilgrimage to meet Shree Dattatreya Prabhu Ji since the reason behind is to receive the Avatar Shakti from Avadhot Prabhuraya.

People were climbing step by step to the Mahurgarh peak. They all were in a row. Suddenly, the people started making panic, there was a tiger behind them. But Shree Chakarapani Prabhuji fearlessly set himself in front of the tiger, because he knows Shree Dattatreya Prabhuji is in the form of the tiger.

Then Prabhu ji greeted tiger with a namaskar. Then after, The Lord Shree Dattatreya Maharaj Ji blessed him with his toe and given him the Ubhay Shakti (उभय शक्ती) and Shree Chakarapani Ji accepted the Gyan Shakti (ज्ञान शक्ती) and started the work with the Para Shakti (पराशक्ती).

ज्ञान शक्ती स्वीकार
इधर श्री चक्रपाणी माहुर को आ गये, शके 1080 (इ.स.1158) उमर के 30 वे वर्ष माहुर मेँ श्री दत्तात्रेय प्रभु से मिलने के लिये, क्योकी भगवान को अवतार शक्ती स्वीकार कार्य करना था। लोग माहुर के गड (शिखर) पर चढणे लगे, श्री चक्रपाणी भी यात्रीओँ के पीछे अंतर रखकर चढ रहे थे, तभी अचानक एक जाली मेँ से (श्री दत्तात्रेय प्रभु) वाघ के रुप मेँ आरोगना करके आ गये, यात्रीगण इधर उधर भागने लगे पर श्री चक्रपाणी महाराज वही एक खडक पर बैँठ गये, और श्री चक्रपाणी प्रभु श्री दत्तात्रेय प्रभु के (वाघ) सामने बैठ कर नमस्कार कीया, तभी वाघने (श्री दत्तात्रेय प्रभु) श्री चक्रपाणी के सर पर पंजा रखकर उभय शक्ती प्रदान की, श्री चक्रपाणी राऊळ ने ज्ञान शक्ती का स्वीकार किया उसमेँ “पराशक्ती” के आच्छादन करके अवर शक्ती के कार्य सुरु कीये|

God With Form or God Without Form...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Like all of us, Arjuna was also confused about the proper way to worship God.

So, Arjuna very specifically asked bhagwan Krishna whether one should worship God as a person (WITH FORM) or worship God as impersonal (WITHOUT FORM).
(BG:12:1).

Prabhu Shree Krishna answered
Those who worship me with great faith, I consider them to be perfect. However, those worship the impersonal, formless, imperishable Brahman with proper control of senses also will finally attain me.
(Bhagavad Gita Chapter 12:2,3,4)

Bhagwan Krishna answered: Remember those whose minds are attached to the impersonal, formless, imperishable Brahman will find very difficult to progress in their path since they are born with body and mind.
(Bhagavad Gita Chapter 12:5)

Since the concept of God is very difficult to explain, Rishi Veda Vyasa wrote, we can worship God.
With form - SAGUNA BRAHMAN - as well as Without form - NIRGUNA BRAHMAN
